  AC & DC Axial Flow Fans  

Axial Flow Fans
Axial flow fans use a propeller to create a flow of air in the direction of the axis of rotation. These fans create a large airflow, making them optimal for use as ventilators for overall cooling of internal machinery components. In the ORIX fan line, axial flow fans are available in a wide variety of sizes and voltage characteristics.

RoHS compliant models available.
 
         
  AC & DC Centrifugal Blowers   Centrifugal Blowers
Centrifugal blowers move air by means of the centrifugal force generated by rotating a cylindrical runner on which blades have been arranged. Centrifugal blowers have a small outlet, which concentrates air in a single direction, and are therefore suitable for local cooling. They also create large static pressure, making them optimal for cooling equipment through which air cannot flow easily and for airflow through ducts.
 
         
  AC & DC Cross Flow Fans   Cross Flow Fans
Cross flow fans create a wide flow of air using a long cylindrical-shaped impeller. Air is drawn inn along the sides of the runner, flows along the circumference of the runner, and is blown out laterally, creating a uniform flow of air. Cross flow fans are used for cooling circuit boards installed in equipment, air curtains, and other applications. In addition, cross flow fans offer the advantages of right-angle air flow and rectangular shape which facilitates installation in corners and saves space.
 
         
  Thermostats   Thermostat
By detecting the ambient temperature, the thermostat turns the fan on and off to maintain appropriate working temperatures.
The use of a thermostat is recommended for energy conservation and noise reduction.

Overview of Cooling Fans

A fan is a device that creates airflow by using a motor to rotate blades. Cooling fans are essential in the smooth operation of many sophisticated machines, such as electronic equipment. The ORIX fan line includes AC and DC axial flow fans for ventilation and cooling, centrifugal blowers for local cooling, and cross flow fans for a wide, uniform sheet of air. The ORIX fan line incorporates specially designed fan blades for increased air pressure, increased static pressure, high airflow and low noise.

Advanced functions are often needed to ensure equipment is cooled adequately, thereby improving the reliability of the equipment itself. Temperature sensors can detect changes in internal temperature and adjust airflow, and alarms that can detect faults, are some of the functions offered with ORIX fan products. In addition, accessories such as thermostats are available for energy savings by only operating the fan when needed.
